Walking Tour Of Diocletian's palace
We’ll start our walking tour on the Riva promenade in front of Diocletian’s Palace, where I’ll show you how the palace looked 1,700 years ago. Then we’ll enter the cellars to see how it was built.
Next, we’ll walk through the southern part where the Emperor lived, visit the Vestibul (the grand welcome hall), and see the Peristyle, the palace’s main square.
We’ll also visit all four gates and stop by the statue of Grgur Ninski, Split’s good luck charm. Finally, we’ll wander through the narrow Kala alleys, which will lead us back to our car for the next destination.
Klis Fortress
After exploring Split’s Old Town, we’ll drive to Klis Fortress, just a short ride away. Located on a hilltop, Klis offers spectacular views over Split and the islands.
There, I’ll tell you about its 2,000-year history as a key defensive stronghold, from Roman times through the Ottoman wars. We’ll walk along the fortress walls, explore old towers and gates, and see where scenes from Game of Thrones were filmed.
It’s the perfect spot for panoramic photos and to soak in the rich history before heading to our next destination.
Trogir Old Town Walking Tour
After Klis Fortress, we’ll continue to Trogir, a beautiful historic town on a small island connected by bridges.
We’ll walk through its narrow stone streets, see medieval city walls, and visit the main square with the impressive Cathedral of St. Lawrence. You’ll hear about Trogir’s Greek, Roman, and Venetian history, and have time for lunch and to enjoy the waterfront promenade before heading back to Split.
Return to Split
At the end of the tour we will drive back to Split and I can drop you off at your accomodation.

It's time to go chasing waterfalls! The Plitvice Lakes in Croatia can emit hues ranging from green and grey to blue and azure. Minerals and organisms residing in the series of sixteen interconnected lakes in combination with the shifting sunlight provide this spectacular rainbow dance several times a day. Add to that the waterfall connecting the separate lakes and the surrounding woodland populated by deer, bears, wolves, and birds, and the Plitvice Lakes are something out of a fairy-tale.
